My Kindle can do extended selection. I wish my other readers could.

Yes, I miss wikipedia on my Nook. I use it quite frequently on my Sony and Kindle!

I also wish that the Nook would allow you to access the internet so you could download files like from Dropbox or Feedbooks. My Sony even allows me to download books from my Kobo account through their browser.
